Tires Pirelli or Nokia
I've used Blizzak, Pirelli (don't remember model), Continental Viking Contact and now Vredestein Wintrac Pro+. Blizzaks were great, Pirellis made a lot of noise on wet pavement - first time I thought I had something failing in the drivetrain. Continentals were good, but when they were almost done they failed in a really weird (scary) way that caused a lot of instability and the wet traction basically went to zero. I'm on a brand new set of Vredesteins now and so far they've been good.
If you buy it, I recommend the Pirelli Angel GT2 tires; they work very well on this bike.
I had Pirelli's on my VW and Hyundai and I never lost traction in the winter.
I highly recommend Pirelli P4 Persist's, they're really good. They'll last a long time and handle well in all sorts of weather, of course you still gotta be careful in heavy rain and snow though.
I’ve been on the pirelli scorpions (18”) for two years. Got me through Chicago snows and Orlando heat with minimal noise. No complaints at all.
am pe bmw tractiune spate nokian season proof2… excelente. si pe zapada mare (la munte) , si pe umed, nu am avut vreo problema.
in the summer i swap to 22” range wheels with pirelli scorpions and get 2.1 to 2.7 mi/kw. so best case scenario, i’m getting 380.
Personally, I have the Nokian WRG5 on my work van, and they have been... I don't know... OK I guess... I work in rural North Dakota, mostly highway driving but some gravel and I think they are pretty sloppy feeling on gravel at any decent speed...
Pirelli’s shitty tire mostly.
When it comes to tires, I have had Pirelli. They don’t last what they say that they are supposed to, even with regular rotation.
